[OS X TeX] ! LaTeX Error: File `pdfsync.sty' {and topcapt.sty] not found

[Winfried Zettelmeyer]

Herbert,
after removing a pdfsync.sty file which had slipped into the home  
folder I repeated the command and got:

Last login: Sun Mar  5 00:11:47 on console
Welcome to Darwin!
[62-87-126-135:~] winfried% kpsewhich pdfsync.sty
/Users/winfried/Library/texmf/tex/latex/pdfsync.sty
[62-87-126-135:~] winfried%

The subsequent typeset run finished successfully now. In order to see  
if the double placement of the file was the problem I reintroduced it  
into the Home folder, but it still runs allright. So I have no idea  
what made the program protest in the first place.

The pdf syncing does not work though. When I clik on the pdf file I  
do not get the very welcome yellow patches on the source file anymore  
and viceversa clicking into the source file does not produce the  
beloved red ellipses. I suspect something has been reset !?

Greetings
Winfried

Howdy,

It's finding a pdfsync.sty file in your HOME folder!? Run after you  
cd to the directory where your .tex file resides. Make sure the  
pdfsync.sty file really is in ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/.

Good Luck,

Herb Schulz
